DUCTAL CARCINOMA IN SITU

This study tests whether losartan, a drug already used for high blood pressure, can reduce scarring (fibrosis) caused by radiation therapy in breast cancer patients. 43 women who had breast surgery and need radiation will receive either losartan or a placebo. Researchers will mea…

This study tests whether a shorter, more focused radiation treatment (accelerated partial breast irradiation) after breast-conserving surgery can effectively control cancer in the breast and nearby lymph nodes for people with early-stage breast cancer. About 537 participants with…

This study compares active monitoring (regular checkups without immediate treatment) to surgery for people with low-risk ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), a very early form of breast cancer. About 1,000 participants are being followed for two years to see if monitoring is as good …

This phase 3 trial compares a standard 3-week radiation course to an experimental 2-week course for women with early-stage breast cancer. About 400 participants who had lumpectomy will receive whole breast radiation plus an extra boost to the tumor site. The study checks if the s…

This study is testing whether shorter, more focused radiation treatments after lumpectomy are as safe and effective as the standard six-and-a-half-week course. About 121 women with early-stage breast cancer are receiving one of several accelerated radiation methods, including a s…

This phase II trial tests a single, high-dose radiation treatment given before surgery for early-stage breast cancer. The goal is to see if this approach leads to good or excellent cosmetic results and reduces the need for multiple radiation sessions. About 110 women with small, …

This study tests whether an inactivated Pseudomonas aeruginosa injection, combined with an iodine wash, can reduce complications like infection and capsular contracture in women undergoing immediate breast reconstruction with implants after cancer surgery. The trial involves 100 …

This study tests a precise type of radiation called proton therapy for people with early-stage breast cancer. The goal is to see if it can control the cancer and reduce side effects compared to standard radiation. About 150 adults aged 40 and older who had a lumpectomy are taking…

This study tests a one-time radiation treatment for early-stage breast cancer. After a lumpectomy, tiny radioactive seeds are placed directly into the breast to kill any remaining cancer cells. The goal is to see if this method is safe, works well, and costs less than standard da…

This study compares two types of radiation therapy for women with early-stage breast cancer after lumpectomy. One group receives standard CT-guided radiation, while the other receives a newer MRI-guided approach. The goal is to see if MRI-guided radiation works just as well at pr…

This study tests a shorter radiation treatment (partial breast irradiation) for women with early-stage breast cancer or a pre-cancer called DCIS. Instead of treating the whole breast for 5-7 weeks, radiation is given only to the area where the tumor was removed, for just 2 weeks.…

This study looks at whether combining mammograms with breast MRIs can find breast cancer earlier in women at high risk, such as those with BRCA gene mutations. About 305 participants will get both scans yearly, and researchers will track how well they detect cancer and how the sc…

This study looks at how different breast cancer treatment decisions, like choosing between a lumpectomy or mastectomy, affect women's quality of life and emotional distress. Researchers followed 345 women with early-stage breast cancer and their partners to measure cancer-related…

This study looks at how doctors currently diagnose lung and breast cancer using tissue samples. It will also test whether artificial intelligence (AI) can help analyze these samples faster and more accurately. Researchers will review records from 600 patients to measure diagnosis…

This study planned to give high doses of vitamin D to women with breast cancer before their surgery. Researchers wanted to see if the vitamin would change certain markers in the cancer cells. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results ar…

This study looks at how patients feel physically and emotionally after having a breast biopsy for certain non-cancerous but atypical breast conditions. Over 900 participants from several hospitals answered surveys about pain and quality of life, on average nearly four years after…

This study looks at how normal breast tissue appears on MRI and mammogram to see if it can help predict breast cancer risk. Researchers are comparing images and health information from over 2,000 women, including those with and without breast cancer. The goal is to better underst…
